Marxism-Leninism insists that science begins where immediate appearance is no longer taken as the truth of things. The world first presents itself to us in forms that are visible, concrete and often misleading.

In addition to our previous statement on Iran, we wanted to clarify our position on how communists should position themselves in relation to the escalating confrontation between Iran and the United States–Israel axis. Communists cannot be indifferent to foreign aggression. When a country faces military attack by powerful imperialist states, the situation cannot be treated

We stand with the Iranian people. We express our full solidarity with the Iranian people and condemn without hesitation any military aggression and any collective punishment imposed on civilian populations. Bombardment, sanctions, and threats of wider war only deepen the suffering of working people – who once again, as in every war, are made to
We’ve all seen the images and headlines over the past weeks. What is happening is no longer hidden or distant – it is visible, shared, and impossible to ignore.

Conversely, we don’t see the task at hand being

Held amid the Greenland dispute, the Davos meetings neither defused nor contained the confrontation. Trump’s proposal to bring the island under US control remains in fact very much on the table, combining public statements, diplomatic interventions, and open threats of economic retaliation. The EU leadership has publicly framed Greenland’s territory as ‘non-negotiable’, while simultaneously preparing

Learning how working-class struggle works in Greece is extremely useful for understanding how workers could organise in Britain too. Greece is not examined as a special case, but as a comparable one. Like Britain, Greece is an advanced capitalist economy integrated into both turopean and global markets. Its low union density, weakened social-democratic base, and

With the end of 2025 come two important dates in the history of the former USSR. The first is its establishment on 30 December 1922, a monumental event, as the first state to undertake socialist construction. The second was the victory of the counter-revolution on 26th December 1991 and subsequently, the formal lowering of the
